Description
Summary:
Join a founding AI team to turn generative AI ideas into production-ready features, architect AI-powered agents, and influence the technical direction of an AI roadmap in real estate tech.
Highlights:
1. Shape the long-term technical direction of AI roadmap
2. Develop production-ready generative AI features and agents
3. Work with cutting-edge LLMs, RAG, and agentic AI
***Role Overview***
We’re building a new product in the real estate tech space and are looking for a **Senior AI Engineer** to join our founding AI team. You’ll help turn generative AI ideas into **production\-ready features**, architect and ship **AI\-powered agents**, and influence the long\-term technical direction of our AI roadmap. You’ll work closely with our existing product stack (**Ruby on Rails \+ React**) and leverage **AWS AI infrastructure** to deliver scalable, secure, high\-performing systems.
***Key Responsibilities***
AI Agent Development
* Design, build, and maintain intelligent, autonomous, or conversational **AI agents** to automate workflows and improve user productivity.
* Implement agentic patterns and orchestration for real\-world product use cases.
AI/ML System Development (End\-to\-End)
* Architect, develop, and maintain scalable **end\-to\-end AI systems** and generative AI applications using **AWS AI services** and open\-source frameworks.
* Own the AI lifecycle from concept and design through deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
Full\-Stack Integration
* Partner with backend (**Ruby on Rails**) and frontend (**React**) engineers to integrate AI\-driven capabilities into the core product experience.
* Build APIs/services that support reliable AI features and excellent UX.
Data Pipeline Management
* Develop and manage robust pipelines for ingestion, processing, and transformation of **real estate datasets** to support model training and inference.
* Ensure data quality, lineage, and consistency across workflows.
Performance Monitoring \& Optimization
* Monitor and optimize deployed models, agents, and APIs for reliability, accuracy, latency, and **cost efficiency**.
* Establish best practices for observability and performance tracking.
Collaboration \& Technical Leadership
* Collaborate closely with product, data, and engineering teams to define requirements, validate solutions, and champion AI best practices.
* Contribute to coding standards, mentor peers, and help shape the long\-term AI technical roadmap.
Innovation \& Applied Research
* Evaluate and apply new technologies in **LLMs**, **Retrieval\-Augmented Generation (RAG)**, and **agentic AI** to solve complex problems.
***Qualifications (Required)***
* Bachelor’s or advanced degree in **Computer Science, Data Science**, or a related field.
* **5\+ years** of experience in AI/ML or software engineering roles with exposure to **production\-grade AI systems**.
* Proficiency in **Python** and familiarity with frameworks such as **PyTorch, TensorFlow, or LangChain** (or equivalents).
* Hands\-on experience deploying AI models/services in a cloud environment (**AWS preferred**).
* Strong understanding of **data structures, algorithms, and distributed systems design**.
* Solid grasp of **LLMs, Generative AI, and RAG** methodologies.
* Excellent collaboration skills and a track record of delivering results in cross\-functional teams.
***Preferred (Nice to Have)***
* Experience integrating AI into web applications built on **Ruby on Rails** and **React**.
* Familiarity with **vector databases** and embeddings (e.g., **Pinecone, FAISS, Weaviate**).
* Exposure to **MLOps tools and best practices** (e.g., **SageMaker, MLflow**, CI/CD, model monitoring).
* Interest in real estate or property technology (PropTech) applications.
